Banner Learning Special Interest Group (SIG)

The Banner Learning Special Interest Group (SIG) consists of a joint effort sponsored by the campus Financial and Accounting Services department, Information Systems department, and the Professional Development Center.

With little formal Banner training in place, in November 2008 the core Banner SIG team began initial work to organize a cross representative training team to organize and implement campus Banner training.  In December 2008, this team was organized and defined.  The team consists of Banner training representatives pinpointed from the Special Interest Group selections of the Partners Advisory Group (led by Paul Heinrichs as a partner of the Information Systems Partnership Council).  Banner Learning SIG members include representatives from many departments on campus:

Andrea Ellis, Human Resources

Bonnie Kiger, Admissions

David Clark, Residence Life and Housing

Debbie Deheck, Graduate School

Donnette Leonard, Babcock

Jeannette Rork, Registrar

Jennifer Rogers, Finance (co-chair)

JoAnn Trethaway, Divinity School

Kate Hicks, Information Systems (co-chair)

Laurie O’Brien, Human Resources

LeAnn Steele, Law School

Nathan Cramer, Advancement

Sarah Wojcik, Information Systems

Shelia Lockhart, Religion

Terri LeGrand, Financial Aid


The team has organized a basic navigational training effort which will address the generic needs of all Banner users.  To learn more about the basic opportunities, visit pdc.wfu.edu.  Following the general information, the team hopes to organize formalized training efforts including departmental specific Banner information.  An overarching goal of the group includes creating a central repository for Banner information on campus.  The team will also work to provide Banner 8 training information as the Banner 8 upgrade occurs.

Do you have questions, requests, or ideas regarding training?  Contact your departmental Banner SIG representative as listed above or contact co-chair Jennifer Rogers, rogersjh@wfu.edu .
